If you can't bear the pain of your neighbor's suffering, then in one way or another you are going to push that person to the margins. Every society says that the outsiders are the problem. But the outsiders are not the problem. The urge to create outsiders is the problem.

Overcoming that urge is our greatest challenge and our greatest promise. It will take courage and insight, because the people we push to the margins are the ones who trigger in us the feelings we are afraid of. Isolating others to ease our fears is a deep urge inside all of us. How do we turn it around?

"...Killian says: 'To be known without being loved is terrifying. To be loved without being known has no power to change us. But to be deeply known and deeply loved transforms us. Trying to help others while keeping them at a safe distance cannot truly help them or heal us. We have to open up to others. We have to give up the need to be separate and superior. Then we can help.'"
